In Polio RALEIGH?Reports of the in incidence of polio in the States, particularly in Texas, California and Arkansas, are coming in but North Carolina is well below the average for the country aa a whole, it was pointed out today by Dr. J. W. R. Norton, State Health Officer. Dr. Norton cited the fact that,*Vhrough July of this year, only 100 cases of polio had been reported to the North Carolina State Board of Health, as compared with 1,098 for the same period last year, when the largest epidemic of our history occurred. Dr. Norton also stated that only 42 cases were reported for the single month of July this year, against 783 m July, 1948. "It is to be regretted, of course" Dr. Norton went on, 'that polio is prevalent in epidemic form in any part of the country. However, we have taken punishment in this re spect, in both 1944 and 1948, and if our incidence this year is low, we can be grateful without reflection ?on any part of the country. Of ?course, we do not know what the future holds in store. There might be a flare up later on in the year, jut just now none is indicated and think we should be very grate that our summer hab\ts are sing interrupted this year by the pr^alence of any scourge or epidemic." ? -o f Catawba County cotton grow ers have formed a one-variety improvement association. Virtu ally all ginners in the county have agreed to cooperate in cut ting samples so that growers may get their crop officially graded and stapled.
